4/3 update: Updated items for more consistent spirit investment and avoiding early T4s. Also changed AP order back to T3 bolt rush but T2 assistant first is still fine if you prefer that.
TWITCH.TV/RAIGEKl
Feel free to ask me any questions on the Sinclair discord @RAIGEKI
T3 bolt is our power spike, whether you go straight 8 points into bolt or get T2 assistant first just play for your T3 bolt timing and don't force being too active before then.


I
Surplus de charge
Try to save both bolt charges in lane for when assistant is up.


II
Esprit amélioré
Spirit good


III
Recharge rapide
4.8k spirit spike, should be able to win any lane from here.


II
Emblème enchanteur
Spirit good


III
Imbue [E]
Regain de puissance
Huge bolt dmg increase this early. Can get decay first if against a lot of big chunkers.


I
Imbue [E]
Expansion mystique
I prefer getting this once I have T3 bolt to be a bit more consistent and faster at killing T2 camps.


III
Sentinelle du voile
Get whatever 3.2k green you think is best at this point. I prefer veil walker the most if I feel like I can get away with it. Play aggressive and look for picks while being the UAV for your team.


III
Active
Décomposition
Does a ton of damage, scales throughout the game, and gives you an antiheal for the beefy heroes that bolts are worse against. SKIP AGAINST DYNAMO
Rough order of how I ideally buy for spirit investment. If you're ahead you can rush carpet before any of these.


II
Active
Sape spirituelle
Just throw this alongside decay on people and it makes them miserable. Don't upgrade to focus lens that item is junk. SKIP AGAINST DYNAMO


III
Expansion supérieure
Makes everything easier to hit and makes almost every ult better.


II
Vulnérabilité mystique
Good damage boost and the best 1600 for spirit investment. If you got slowing hex you can skip this.


IV
Profusion spirituelle
Between the nerfs to spirit investment and boundless itself I dont think its worth it to rush this anymore but at this point it gives us a ton of damage.


III
Récupération supérieure
More of our op buttons


III
Prolongation supérieure
Makes most of our abilities and items better and benefits almost every ult in the game.
Can buy any of these in addition to or in place of veil walker


III
Active
Dissipateur de magie
Most often thing im buying from this category. Theres a ton of slowing hexes and silence waves running around right now. Also good for debuff heroes like mirage / drifter / infernus.


III
Contresort
Really good in specific matchups. I buy this vs Drifter and Lash most often.


III
Active
Pierre de distorsion
All around good survivability item and enables a lot of stolen ults


III
Active
Cuir blindé
Best anti gun item in the game. Only really buy this if I need it to survive while warden / seven / dynamo ulting or if they have a paint licker ult haze.
Read annotations and buy off vibes. Max rabbit or ult at 30k based on the enemy lineup.


IV
Récupération transcendante
I don't usually buy this until I have full actives


IV
Active
Tapis volant
Still an amazing item but really hard to buy this early unless you are ahead. Turns you into a pseudo pick hero when combined with veil walker and max bunny lategame and enables bebop / lash ults.


IV
Imbue [E]
Active
Éclat d'écho
Always broken with max rabbit. You can default to this and max rabbit every game and it will always be high impact.


IV
Active
Fléau
Can throw on your beefiest gorilla against spirit heavy lineups. With greater expansion and sup duration this item is crazy.


IV
Active
Protection divine
If pocket or drifter ult are owning you or your team.
if team deals 0 damage


IV
Brulure spirituelle
Scales with spirit now and decay usually procs this on its own. Also the best way to stack escalating if you buy that.


IV
Imbue [E]
Réverbération mystique
Stand 3-4 meters behind ur assistant and you will proc this on both bolts.


IV
Exposition spirituelle
Not the best item on this hero but stacks off spirit burn / scourge / assistant and can be good if you're stealing seven ult every fight.
If you max ult before rabbit.


IV
Kevlar de l'augure
Really strong item if you're target stealing the big ults that require you to be in the enemies face


IV
Parchemin de foudre
I think this item is generally pretty poor but its buyable if you have kevlar already and are stealing seven / warden / mcginnis ult. Specifically very good with Vindicta ult.


I
Balles antimonstres
Get this against heavy pressure lanes or if your lane partner is playing super aggro and its your job to kill the troopers.


I
Active
Rite de guérison
Get this if you need it to play the lane. Helps you sustain while taking sinners too.


I
Réfutation
For Viscous and cavemen.


II
Protection d'urgence
Good against heroes that have to proc it to kill you.


II
Vitesse persistante
I dont really buy this but it can be very good if they have a bunch of heroes with slows


III
Résilience spirituelle
If you're only dying to purple damage


IV
Cuirasse ensorcelée
Secret tech vs graves, just run into the zombies and generate infinite tombstones. Also procs on every scarab tick against mirage lategame.


IV
Active
Intouchable
Only consider this item if you're stealing dynamo / seven ult every fight and are against a lot of interupts. Also buyable if you want to abuse the secret urn teleport technique.


II
Active
Malédiction de ralentissement
Good against our hardest matchups (calico, lash, mina, apollo). Strong in tandem with veil walker to setup ganks on the squishy mobile heroes


III
Active
Malédiction désarmante
This item can be really crazy lategame when you have superior duration and trans cooldown. otherwise I generally prefer metal skin to survive vs gun heroes.


III
Active
Coup d'enclume
if vind / gt or a channeling ult like seven / mcginnis is owning your team.
